Pedro Sanchez is one of the few sensible leaders remaining in the world. I recommend watching his last speech regarding this conflict: https://piped.video/watch?v=h9m4-pkMJpA
Wake me up when it's not speeches but praxis.
...and other speeches of what he's thinking about Trump and Netanyahu, but sadly pretty alone with it in the "EU". By far not all from Sanchez is to my like, but in this points and what means humanity and souvereignity, his ideas are pretty clear.
Wait, you mean we just ask the yankees to leave?
if you're white enough it works sometimes
Funny enough the US (and Canada) don't seem to consider Mediterraneans fully "white." You get people with Spanish/Italian/Greek heritage getting offended when they're called white.
Neither did Hitler. Mussolini tried kissing his ass but he was never prepared to consider Italians equal to Aryans.
Also the Iranian guy they killed was paler than the average American, and in general Iranians have very fair skin but are not considered "white" by white supremacists.
It just shows how whiteness is an ever narrowing category and you, yes you, current white person, WILL eventually by excluded by it if the people who believe in whiteness (i.e. the Nazis) succeed.
Iranians where considered Aryans by Hitler, in fact the term Aryan comes from old iranian Arya.
The Nazis advocated the common Aryan ancestry of Iranians and Germans. As a result, in 1936 the Reich Cabinet issued a special decree exempting Iranians from any restrictions to the Nuremberg Racial Laws on the grounds that they were "pure" Aryans. Various pro-Nazi publications, lectures, speeches, and ceremonies, also drew parallels between Reza Shah, Hitler, and Mussolini to emphasize the charismatic resemblance among these leaders.

at least one EU nation has a spine
Germany? U seeing this?
Germany supported Israel in its Genocide in Gaza, revealing very clearly that the foundations of the Nazi mindset were alive and well there when none other than their Chanceller very openly and publicly justified supporting Israel in their Genocide in Gaza using the ethnicity of the aggressor as the reason for that support.
Unsurprisingly they've also been supporting Israel and the US in this current attack.
A nation were the race of the aggressor and the victims is considered valid justification for wipping out a city of 2 million people isn't one holding Modern Western values and hence not one that's going to turn against a Nation whose main ethnicity they consider to be "good" (which applies to both white main ethnicities of the US and Israel) when they're attacking a nation whose ethnicity - Muslim - they very publicly deem "bad" (though never explicitly using the word "bad", they definitelly use "terrorists", "murderers", "violent" and similar derrogatory terms when refering to Muslims in general).
I don't think it's reasonable to expect even just late XX century thinking from Germany.
